The album has garnered mostly extremely positive reviews. The AU Review talks of their unique sound - "a sultry mix of folk inspired rock and roll, The First Dance is gentle but strong, holding an understated power, a subtle strength that many bands lack,".[11] Mac Easton at Soulshine speaks favourably, "The First Dance is a musical moment to be absolutely savoured."[12] "The album - anything but raucous - lures the listener to the same state felt on a relaxed yet contemplative summer's afternoon," says Drone Magazine.[13]
